Node-$type.tpl.php with Module
tonyp001 - May 15, 2008 - 21:08
I created a module with a content type and wanted to apply a custom theme for it. I created a node theme by using the node-$type.tpl.php file and placing in the directory for my chosen theme.
However, I was wondering if there was a way to place the theme file in my module directory instead? I noticed the organic groups module does it, but when I tried it, nothing happened.
Any thoughts?
In drupal 5, tpl files only
In drupal 5, tpl files only work in themes. The OG template file is a decoy, meant to be copied to the themes folder I think.
Drupal 6 allows you to do this however.

Thanks for the reply, Nick
That's too bad.
So outside of creating a theme file for my node, is there another good way to customize it?
